[quote=Anonymous]I think outside of AAU training is just as if not more important at middle school level to prepare for high school. I know that some of my son's friends have been looking at this now to get ready for trying out for Freshman Basketball. Some signed up for this camp in a few weeks at Gillion Basketball Academy in Falls Church area. i think it is gil-lionbasketballacademy.com Coach is a former D1 coach but trains highschool and 8th graders and that skill development is more important because a lot of AAU is just games but no individual skill development. I would say look for individual skill training in a camp or one on one setting to work on ball control and speed and that will do more than a high level AAU team where they sit. Definitely look for AAU but if parents will not see individual training just being on a team. You need something outside of that and 13-14 is the right age. [/quote]
